Chapter 8



This question is terrible!

Wen Ruo didn't dare to look him in the eye and denied, "I don't like anyone."

Who are you trying to fool? Her face was so red, Lu Xingyun stood up and looked down at her: "Don't hide it from your boss."

Wen Ruo:......

"The law doesn't stipulate this," she protested, saying that everyone has the right to privacy.

Lu Xingyun smiled and even mentioned the law.

Suddenly there were footsteps at the door. Lu Xingyun turned around and found that it was his father Lu Shenxiu.

"Xingyun, why are you hiding here? Why are you asking the shareholders to wait for you?"

"Aren't they all here yet?" Lu Xingyun picked up his notebook. "I came here very early."

He was a very competent manager. Lu Shenxiu smiled at his son and said, "Your production department is running well. I heard that you signed a few more orders?"

"yes."

"Let's work harder and strive for a breakthrough this year..."

Wen Ruo listened quietly at the side and found that the annual profit of his restaurant was not even as much as the other person's little finger.

"Go to your uncle's house for dinner this weekend," Lu Shenxiu advised, "Zhenzhen is about to give birth, so don't go empty-handed." He was referring to Lu Xingyun's cousin Qi Zhen.

"Can I go buy some milk powder?"

Lu Shenxiu smiled, "Almost." He glanced at Wen Ruo, "Is this your new assistant?"

Why do you look like a kid who's still in school?

The chairman is in his forties, not young but handsome. Wen Ruo thought to herself that it was no wonder that Lu Xingyun was so handsome, it turned out that he looked like his father. As a result, the chairman suddenly noticed her.

This was Wen Ruo's first time facing the biggest boss in the company. She felt that Lu Shenxiu's gaze was very sharp, like a knife.

Wen Ruo was very nervous.

"Yes," Lu Xingyun said, "She speaks very good French."

"Really?" The sharpness in Lu Shenxiu's eyes faded away and he didn't say anything else.

Unexpectedly, he would say good things in front of the chairman. Wen Ruo couldn't help but smile at Lu Xingyun.

This smile is like the sunshine breaking through the clouds, so bright, and also like honey, so sweet.

Lu Xingyun was stunned for a moment and turned around.

Saturday is here in a blink of an eye.

Because Wen Ruo had an appointment with Pan Lie, she told Wen Lixin that she was going out to eat. She usually eats in restaurants on weekends.

Wen Lixin didn't ask further, but Ji Yun was very sensitive: "With whom?"

Wen Ruo wanted to lie, but usually one lie requires countless lies to cover it up, so he answered honestly: "Someone gave me a necklace, and I went to return it to him."

"Is it the one called Pan Lie?" Ji Yun asked.

Wen Lixin was unhappy: "Why would you give me a necklace?"

"Yeah, so I'm going to pay it back."

"That's outrageous. Let him get it himself."

Ji Yun said, "We've already made an appointment, so let's go."

These two people, one is stupid and ignorant, and the other just knows how to protect blindly, they might miss a good marriage.

"The necklace shouldn't be given to him now, Ruoruo. You told him too soon." Ji Yun reminded.

Wen Ruo thought to himself, what does it mean to be too fast? He shouldn’t have sent it.

Seeing that the time was almost up, she hurried to catch the bus.

Xicheng Road is not far away, and the bus only takes a quarter of an hour to get there.

Wen Ruo walked into Wang’s Dumpling Shop and saw Pan Lie already waiting.

Wen Ruo took the necklace box out of her bag and placed it on the table: "I'll give this back to you."

Pan Lie took a look and said, "Order dumplings first."

As they had agreed to eat, Wen Ruo sat down and ordered a plate of vegetarian dumplings.

She sat upright and said nothing more.

In Pan Lie's impression, it is rare to meet a girl as well-behaved as Wen Ruo, and the key is that she is getting more and more beautiful. He picked up the box: "If you don't like the necklace, I can take it back, but there is one thing I can't take back. Do you know what it is?"

Wen Ruo was stunned: "What?"

"my heart."

Wen Ruo:......

Pan Lie saw her blushing and thought she must be shy: "Wen Ruo, don't you think we are destined to be together?"

Wen Ruo was embarrassed by what she just said and shook her head: "I don't think so, Mr. Pan, please don't give me anything again in the future."

"Okay, if you don't like it, then I won't give it to you for now." Pan Lie had been in two relationships and had some experience. Seeing that Wen Ruo was very resistant to receiving gifts, he stopped forcing her.

Wen Ruo breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing her eating dumplings with her head down, quietly and beautifully, Pan Lie thought of the time when they went to a restaurant before. He especially liked to call himself brother, but Wen Ruo was always unwilling to call him that. If she opens her mouth to scream one day, I wonder how beautiful it would sound.

He really wants to fall in love with Wen Ruo.

But Wen Ruo looked obedient and refused to say anything extra.

We have to find a roundabout way to save the country, Pan Lie thought.

In the evening, Ji Yun asked Wen Ruo: "Have you returned the things?"

"Um."

Ji Yun pulled her to sit on the sofa: "What did he say?"

It was said very bluntly, and even Wen Ruo understood Pan Lie's thoughts. He was pursuing her.

"Nothing."

Ji Yun rubbed her head: "Actually, you can have a relationship at your age. I think Pan Lie is not bad. When I went to order food for him, he called me auntie and was very polite. He also doesn't do things in a sneaky way. He is aboveboard, right?"

Everyone has their own advantages, Wen Ruo does not deny it, but she does not like Pan Lie: "I don't want to fall in love now."

"Then how old do you want to be? You'll be 23 in two months." Ji Yun coaxed, "Tell mom, what kind of person do you like?"

She can't say.

Wen Ruo avoided the question and said, "Look, Super Chef has started."

This kid!

Ji Yun didn't ask any further.

Chatting with her husband before going to bed: "It's a good thing that Ruoruo didn't fall in love too early, but she never had a relationship in college. Now that she has a job and someone is pursuing her, she doesn't consider it at all. If this continues, she will become an older leftover woman sooner or later."

Wen Lixin wanted to roll his eyes.

When Wen Ruo was in junior high school, Ji Yun always mentioned Wen Rui and Wen Yue in front of her, causing her daughter to study hard just to catch up with her cousins. Later, when she went to college, he kept a close eye on her, forbidding her to date someone from outside her hometown or from the countryside. Now, he is afraid that his daughter will not be able to make up her mind.

But it’s a good thing that he doesn’t understand. Wen Lixin thinks it’s okay to talk about it later.

"Everything will work out when the time comes. Don't worry about it. Our family is so good, are you afraid that she won't be able to get married in the future?"

Ji Yun curled her lips at the argument that "let nature take its course". If she hadn't said that she would quit her job and open a restaurant, her idiot husband would still be making money for others. The same goes for my daughter. If it weren't for her, Wen Ruo might not have been able to get into college. Sometimes people still have to prepare for a rainy day.

However, love is something that cannot be forced; my daughter has to yearn for it herself.

The next night, Ji Yun stopped watching the food show. Instead, she asked Wen Ruo to watch the hit idol drama "Perfect Lovers" together.

Wen Ruo had just sat down when he saw a couple kissing.

Her face heated up: "Mom, why don't you watch Super Chef anymore?"

"Aren't you tired of watching it every day?" Ji Yun looked at his daughter's shy expression and felt that it must be effective. "Your aunt is following this drama, it must be very good. Don't leave, watch it with me."

The scene is very hot. The male protagonist is not satisfied with just one kiss, so he pushes the female protagonist against the wall and continues to kiss her wildly.

Wen Ruo blushed and felt extremely awkward.

Which girl doesn’t have love in her heart? It’s not that she has never thought about falling in love, and it’s not that she has never read romance novels, but it’s really uncomfortable to read them with her mother.

"It doesn't look good." Wen Ruo wanted to run.

Ji Yun held her little hand and said, "Watch it with mom."

Wen Ruo had no choice but to watch it for two hours.

When she was sleeping, the scene of the two loving each other kept lingering in her mind. Wen Ruo held her forehead and thought, my God, why did her mother suddenly have such a girlish heart!

When she saw Wen Lixin in the morning, Wen Ruo leaned over and whispered, "Dad, you should take a few days off and take Mom out to play and watch a movie."

Wen Lixin:? ? ?

"Or buy a gift for your mother." Wen Ruo suggested sincerely.

Wen Lixin was confused, thinking that it was not their wedding anniversary yet. However, his daughter was right, he had not given his wife anything for a long time.

A few days later, Ji Yun received a pair of valuable gold earrings.

"What's wrong with you? It's a waste of money!" Ji Yun scolded her husband, but she happily wore it on her ears every day.

Wen Ruo worked for a month and received his salary today.

Wen Ruo looked at her salary card again and again, and her eyes narrowed with smile.

After get off work, she will buy a new razor for her father and a scarf for her mother as the weather is starting to get cold.

Just as she was thinking about it, a figure flashed before her eyes. She looked up and saw Pan Lie grinning at her.

Wen Ruo froze.

Why did he come to the company? What is he here for?

A series of questions flashed through my mind.

Pan Lie asked: "Have you received your salary?"

Just now I saw Wen Ruo holding something like a treasure, it turned out to be his salary card.

Wen Ruo did not answer: "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

"I have an appointment with Xingyun," Pan Lie knocked on the door directly, "Xingyun, I'm coming in."

Wen Ruo watched him walk into the office.

Lu Xingyun didn’t know what Pan Lie came for, but as a classmate, he strongly requested a meeting, so he didn’t refuse.

"Please sit down," Lu Xingyun asked, "What would you like to drink?"

"I just had coffee outside." Pan Lie stood at the window, looking at Wen Ruo outside, "I went to discuss business with a client, so I just found some time to come over."

Wen Ruo was also very well behaved at work, typing seriously. It seemed that he was typing not in English, but probably in French.

"How much do you pay your assistants?" he asked suddenly.

"Five thousand."

It's only five thousand, but she is so excited. It seems that their Wen family restaurant doesn't make much money every year. Pan Lie smiled. Wen Ruo also likes money. If that's the case, why did she refuse his necklace?

As long as Wen Ruo is willing to date him, he can give her something more expensive.

The man kept looking outside and asked strange questions. Lu Xingyun raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why do you want to meet today?"

"Old classmates, we should see each other more often." Pan Lie turned around, "Of course, the main thing is that I need your help with something."

"What's up?"

Pan Lie took two steps closer: "Help me solve my lifelong problem."

"Then you should go to a dating agency."

"No." Pan Lie pointed at Wen Ruo outside, "I like her, your little assistant."

"so?"

"You can be our matchmaker." Pan Lie had a good idea. Lu Xingyun was Wen Ruo's manager. As long as he was willing to make the connection, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

The author has something to say: Lu Xingyun: Someone is pursuing you, should I help?

Wen Ruo: ...No.

Lu Xingyun: Be good.
